Our whitelist procedure might be awkward but it keeps away hackers. Especially the application for the verified players group is often a challenge to some people. The tutorial explicitly states that you have to give a reason why you wanna play here. As we really approve every application manually this application text is important as it helps us decide if this is just a generic text or something you really have written up yourself. And this little text is exactly what keeps 99% of the baddies away. Nevertheless some people either do not read the tutorial or they do not care. But they get upset when they get a rejection. Here some examples of applications:
Lots of applications are just empty (rejected) or people apply for Bandits or Peacekeepers and wonder, why they are not on the whitelist (you have to apply for verified players). I am always baffled how people simply do not want to read a tutorial. There is even a short film explaining everything...
But there are also demanding applications like the following ones:
Quote
Haven't been playing for a while. Let me in!
or
Quote
I want to get whitelisted.
or
Quote
Give access plz.
Sometimes they give us information totally new to us:
Quote
i like first person very much.
Others admit they are here for streamsniping:
Quote
please give me a chance to kill danny
Or they just tell you why they wanna join:
Quote
KILL THEM ALL!
But my all time favorite of an application text was this one (Could we make an assumption about the age of this person?):

By the way I like Russian applications that wanna get to the white sheet.
But of course there are a lot of awesome applications and people saying thank you politely.
Sometimes people get stinky when they get rejected because of a too short application text like this decent man:

If you thought I'd write you long letters, then you are wrong. If you thought I was a hacker or a bad man, you are also wrong. My idea is to play this game with my friends who are already on your whitelist. During the 5 years I have participated as a senior artist at the forum "Game Replays", for the game "Company of Heroes". I designed hundreds of banners, signs, signatures, the publication... I was dedicated to the community. Today, I'm 45 years old and I have a long beard, good intentions and good friends. And in this game, I also wanted to give a contribution. Thanks to your shallowness, it will not be possible. Thank God, there are a lot of other servers.
Well... would he have invested the energy he used to write this upset reply for the application instead he would have gone through without a problem...
You see, even without playing DayZ running Oldschool can be quite exciting. I'm really looking forward to the applications in 2016
